Your Guide to Anything and Everything Boston

Sorta good news for those of you living in the Seaport District, you're getting another restaurant nearby - the D Street Cafe - which opens tomorrow.

With the recent article that the Seaport District hasn't been doing so well in terms of attracting folks to live there (here). It's good to know that some people are at least trying. I have to admit though, I'm a little underwhelmed at the restaurant description.

The restaurant, which does not have a liquor license, will be a family-friendly quick-casual eatery serving grilled burgers, sandwiches, salads and ice cream. Food will be served grab-and-go style with 80 seats on an outdoor patio. The restaurant, open May through October, employs about 11 people. It will be open weekdays for lunch and an early after-work crowd. Hours will be extended Thursday for live music.

Who are they targeting? There aren't many families in that area - that we've already established - so why the "family-friendly" setting. It's close to the new convention center and there are a few hotels there so I guess you would get that after work crowd. It just seems a little underwhelming compared to the Beehive and Settle's old restaurant, Bob's Southern bistro.

Time will tell I suppose. But if I want family-friendly in that area, I'll go to No Name.
